Which of the following are fields of physics?
A
Mechanics
B
Thermodynamics
C
Vibrations and wave phenomena
D
Optics
E
Electromagnetism
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Electromagnetism deals with the study of electromagnetic force like electric fields, light, magnetic fields, etc. There are two aspects of electromagnetism which are “electricity” and “magnetism”.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of electromagnetic waves traveling through space independent of matter are radio and television waves, microwaves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays, and gamma rays.

Detailed explanation-3: -field, in physics, a region in which each point has a physical quantity associated with it. The quantity could be a number, as in the case of a scalar field such as the Higgs field, or it could be a vector, as in the case of fields such as the gravitational field, which are associated with a force.

Detailed explanation-4: -The field can be viewed as the combination of an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary charges, and the magnetic field by moving charges (electric currents); these two are often described as the sources of the field.
